Suu Kyi to address British parliament

Burmese opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi is to make a historic address to both of the UK's Houses of Parliament as she ventures out of her country for the first time in more than two decades.

The rare honour was announced as David Cameron prepared to brief G8 leaders, meeting in Camp David, on his visit to Burma last month when he extended the invitation for her to come to the UK.
